Package: grub Version: 0.97-28 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. --- I have just installed a new Debian/Lenny. I had to install lilo because grub did not work at install time. I have tried to install grub after the installation was complete and I get the same error: $ grub-install hd0 Searching for GRUB installation directory ... found: /boot/grub The file /boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly.
The contents of the grub directory is $ ls /boot/grub/ default e2fs_stage1_5 jfs_stage1_5 minix_stage1_5 stage1 xfs_stage1_5 device.map fat_stage1_5 menu.lst reiserfs_stage1_5 stage2 It seems that file 'stage1' is readable. The following command does not give any error. $ cat /boot/grub/stage1 >> /tmp/pr --- System information. --- Architecture: i386 Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-686 Debian Release: lenny/sid 500 testing www.debian-multimedia.org 500 testing security.debian.org 500 testing ftp.rediris.es --- Package information. --- Depends (Version) | Installed ==========================-+-=========== libc6 (>= 2.5-5) | 2.7-6 libncurses5 (>= 5.4-5) | 5.6+20080105-1 -- http://antares.sip.ucm.es/~luis In a world without walls, who needs windows(R)? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
